| Albright opposes military intervention in Syria | ||
| 2005-02-21 | ||
JEDDAH — Former US secretary of state Madeleine Albright yesterday reiterated the US position calling on Syria to withdraw its troops from Lebanon but said she did not support military intervention because Washington had "enough on the plate."
Speaking to the forum in the Saudi city of Jeddah, Albright said: "Our problem with Syria is that we tried hard (with them) in the negotiations with Israel. It (Syria) helps terrorist organisations, and is occupying Lebanon." | ||

| #18 HalfBright objects to US military intervention anywhere it will actually do any good. Or promote liberty. |

| #15 Madeleine could keep her brooch collection? It seems to've been what mattered most to her. |

| #14 I'd like to see Halfbright and Jimmah marooned on some tiny, Godforsaken Aleutian island for the rest of their natural lives. That would be the only thing (other than killing them) that would keep them from doing any more damage to the United States. |

| #13 That's not necessarily a good thing. Hitler had a strong personality, too. Ahh, might want to buy another analogy. Hitler is a hero in the Muslim Middle East. |

| #12 When did Democrats get the idea they could go marching around the world, interfering with the current administration's delicate diplomatic negotiating positions? Was it Jesse Jackson and his Third-World Travelling Circus? Between Carter, Albright, and Kerry, I can't see how the lower levels at Foggy Bottom keep track of which side is up. The next time the Donkey Diplomatic Korps wonders why the electorate won't trust them with the Keys to the Kingdom, somebody please remind them of crap like this, yes? |

| #11 Gentle : I met Madline Albright, and she has a very strong personality. I don't think she can be "bought", but that she says whatever she believes to be true. The sincerest person can be wrong, and when you have the power of the Secretary of State, wrong can be deadly. Hence my Maddy and Kim Photo collection. |

| #10 I met Madline Albright, and she has a very strong personality. That's not necessarily a good thing. Hitler had a strong personality, too. I don't think she can be "bought", Turned down the Saudi Pension you offered her, eh? I'm surprised at that. but that she says whatever she believes to be true. As opposed to saying what is actually true. That's another statement that damns with faint praise. |

| #7 I never thought I'd say this, but: Give her a break! Which bone? Where does Halfbrite get the idea it is her job to be involved in iterating or reiterating the U. S. position? She should be prosecuted if she returns to the country. She, Jimmah and all the 90's leftovers had their chance, blew it, and left it for W to clean up. They should STFU. |

| #4 You only listen to what you want to hear, don't you? I met Madline Albright, and she has a very strong personality. I don't think she can be "bought", but that she says whatever she believes to be true. I never thought I'd say this, but: Give her a break! |

| #3 Madeleine, would you please stuff another cookie into that pie hole and waddle off never to be heard from again. |

| #2 I see how she makes her living, today: accepting Oil Tick money to posture and pretend she has a constituency - somewhere, heh - and that the evil US had better back off on the pressure thingy. I'm sure there are Kool Aid Krowd charter members who think she's still the SecState - but they're prolly too looney (or stoned) to find their local polling place, heh, or follow ballot instructions. So, indeed, RWV - Who among the sane gives a rip what she has to say? |

| #1 Who, other than the denizens of CNN, CBS, NYT, and the other handmaidens of the DNC, gives a flying f**k what Madeleine Albright thinks about anything? The woman was an embarrassment and, quite possibly, one of the most ineffectual Secretaries of State we have ever endured. Her policies toward Iraq, North Korea, and al Quaeda should preclude her from ever commenting on anything in public. The same people who listen to her believe that Martin Sheen is the president. Her only saving grace was that she wasn't as goofy as Donna Shalala. |
